AmazonBasics Kitchen Rolling Microwave Cart on Wheels, Storage Rack, Wood/Chrome

This is so much more than I expected. It is extremely sturdy and holds a great deal. I love the fact that it has wheels and I can move it around my very tight/small kitchen. The cutting board is very heavy duty -- I don't actually cut directly onto the board because it so beautiful (instead I place a cutting board on top of it). The hooks hold all of my pans and the shelves are adjustable to the height you want them. I bought some grey plastic and lined my shelves to make it easier to pull things and out and also to not scratch the bottoms of my pots. It is also very pleasing to the eye. Overall, I am thrilled with this purchase and would highly recommend it.


The posts and shelves are solid metal and very durable -- I have storage shelves of similar design (from a different manufacturer) that hold hundreds of pounds. But the wooden top has zero support other than the four small rubber pegs that slot in the tops of the post. Within 24 hours of having a 30lb mixer sitting on it, it had cracked and is now useless. For *only* a microwave where the feet of the appliance are resting near the edges it's probably ok, but I think it's too risky to put anything else of any weight on it, or to use it as a general purpose prep station.
I was hesitant to buy this when I read some of the reviews about how difficult it was to put together. I am glad that I decided to purchase. I thought that it was very simple to put together. Everything was provided and it took maybe 15 minutes for me to put it together myself. I did use a rubber mallet to get the shelving on tight but other than that I only needed what was in the box to assemble. It looks really nice and works well for a coffee station but I could imagine many uses for this cart. I also really like that the shelves can be adjusted to where the user wants them.
Great cart for my Instant Pot. I’ve got a small NYC apt, so space is at a premium. I’ve got just enough room for a small cutting board to sit next to my IP.

Take note—there are little black plastic pieces that hold the package together—when mine came I thought they were part of the cart, and had broken, so I freaked out, but they are just part of the packaging.

This was super-easy to assemble, is very sturdy and looks great. The wood on top is high qualify. If those dimensions are what you are looking for, you will be happy!
I have a similar cart (brand unknown, unfortunately) that I got for a similar price about a year ago. I really like the first one and wanted a slightly smaller one (which this is) to fit in a corner. I was unable to locate a brand name for the first one. Reviews for this one sounded ok and measurements were right so I bought ordered it a few days ago and it arrived today. The good: wheels roll fairly well. Pieces were all there. Instructions were pretty decent (although font is very small). Metal seems pretty sturdy. The bad: top was cracked on arrival (honestly it looks like the corner broke off when they attached a foot, and was glued back together). I turned that to the back which leaves the front with...a deep gouge showing. The black plastic clips don't snap together right and it was significantly harder to assemble than my first cart. Never did get the middle shelf or hooks properly centered on the plastic: it shows, unevenly. The top must be warped--I can't get so four corners aligned and pressed down--I can get two or three that seat right but then the other one or two pop back out. The edge of one of the shelves is obviously bent. (Again, I turned that part to the wall.)
The meh, but what can you expect for this price: the wires to the corners of the shelves end in mid air... Seems less study/lower quality than if they were attached. The gouge in the side of the wooden top I mentioned above. The brakes on the to locking wheels are difficult to toggle.
I'll try to add pictures of the crack, shelf corners, and bent edge soon. Not sure I am a good enough photographer to document the warped top.
Disappointed but assuming the corner doesn't break off when I put something on it, I guess I'll keep it.
All in all, I wouldn't buy another.

Edit: I've added photos of the crack, shelf corner that ends in limbo, the bent shelf edge, and maybe you can tell what I mean about warped top based on the amount of black feet showing on each corner of the top board. The crack in the board wraps around three sides: the short end of the cart, the underside of the board where it stretches several inches--end marked with orange/red, and down the long side of the cart as well.
This lines up almost perfectly with the level of our kitchen counters (within 1/2"), and it holds our big Kitchen Aid mixer perfectly. This was an excellent addition to our kitchen.
Well, I would give this a 5 star, however there was a chunk of wood missing from the bottom of the cart topper (see pic). Since it was the bottom, and didn't affect the structural integrity of the piece, I just let it slide. The top is solid, and you could whack someone with it if you needed. The whole piece was easy to assemble and took me about 10 minutes. Top piece can handle plenty of weight (no bigger than a baby ostrich), and made organizing my kitchen easier. Would recommend.
The only counterspace in my kitchen is a very small area that surrounds my kitchen sink, and I have very limited cabinet space. I wanted to find something to go between my stove and refrigerator that would serve as additional counterspace and have a shelf to hold a microwave. This product was absolutely perfect! It is the same height as my stove, my microwave fits perfectly on the second shelf, and my large crock pot, small rice cooker, and toaster all fit on the bottom shelf. It was easy and quick to assemble and seems very durable.
My only criticism is that even with the 2 wheels locked, it still moves pretty easily. I would suggest having locks on all of the wheels to negate this. However, for the price and quality of this product, I'm very happy with my purchase.
